Research direction
Start by reading src/command/render/template.ts and src/project/types/website/website-search.ts, where the issue identifies CDN URLs and existing MathJax customization. Check the OJS runtime reference separately, since the issue notes it is inherited from ObservableHQ. Done means the feasible default CDN usages can be configured by users without post-processing.

Description
I have issues reaching cdn.jsdelivr.net in my country. So I am getting errors while trying to render MathJax formulast and inster OJS interactive elements. Is there are an option to change default CDN provider?
Context
I believe Quarto should try to be friendly as possible with users wherever they are. Currently, cdn.jsdelivr.net is used by default in several places
Mathjax / KaTeX
This one can already be customized through html-math-method configuration by providing a full new URL
Search with Algolia
It is using cdn.jsdelivr.net by default with no customization
OJS
[!NOTE]
EDIT: For OJS this is not possible as we inherit from ObservableHQ directly (https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/issues/12120#issuecomment-2668719212)
which probably is related to how NPM package are served: https://quarto.org/docs/interactive/ojs/libraries.html#npm
This is the real problem encountered in #12109
This would be another part to make it configurable if possible 🤷♂
Current workaround
Currently doing a post processing to replace the CDN used in quarto-os-runtime.js or other file
